Please Pray for Stellan


I would just like to ask all those who look at or read my blog to pray for baby Stellan. He is the 4th child of MckMama. Please see her blog for the full update on Stellan. He has been in and out of SVT(Supraventricular Tachycardia) since Monday March 23rd, 2009. They are trying everything medically possible to get him out of and keep him out of SVT. MckMama has been so strong thru this all, but like any person, has her times of struggle. Especially considering she spends pretty much all her time with Stellan and she has a husband and 3 other small children at home.
If you feel led to do so, please pray for this amazing little boy! He was diagnosed with SVT when he was only 20 weeks in his mommy's belly. MckMama and PC were told that MckMuffin was going to die. God provided a miracle for this little boy! He was born with absolutely no heart trouble at all.
Stellan started with a cold, but was really stuffed up, congested, wheezy, etc. So MckMama took him in to Emerg to get him checked out. Unfortunately they have been in hospital since. Stellan is living proof what an amazing God we have! The doctors are amazed that he hasn't gone into heart failure because of the SVT. But thanks be to God, Stellan is still hanging on tight! The little guy has been losing weight, and is really feeling crummy. But pop over to MckMama's blog http://www.mycharmingkids.net/ and see for yourself that even tho Stellan feels crummy and looks tired and sad, he is still such a sweet, precious miracle from God. And he is still such a sweet, handsome little guy!
God bless all who read about Stellan and pray for the MckFamily!

Not Me, Monday=o)



Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Well, here we go again=o) Enjoy!

Last week, I did not have a craving for A&W chubby chicken and onion rings. I mean, I do NOT give in to my cravings! I did not then realize I still hadn't showered and really didn't feel like it. So I did not end up just throwing some clothes on quickly, undergarment free=oP I mean who would go out without any undergarments on. Nope, not me! I did not then fall as I was walking to my car and get mud all over my pants, coat, etc and have to go back in and change. I did not still neglect to shower, but just throw on clean pants and head out the door again, this time wearing non-slip shoes.

I did not end up going to the hospital a week later because I thot my finger was broken from my fall=oP I was not thankful that is was only sprained.

I did not have to go for stomach x-rays this week. I did not have to drink this nasty white, chalky tasting stuff. Nope, not me. I am always healthy and never have anything wrong!

When I was last in Alberta, Pani and I did not go out for lunch one afternoon. I did not have a most embarrassing thing happen. I did not order a chicken ceasar wrap, only to discover there were tomatoes in it(which did not show on the menu). I did not use my fork to pick out each of the tomato pieces so I didn't get even one in my mouth;o) I did not then proceed to miss one of these fine tomatoes and while sitting there with Pani across from me, I was not in my own little world, totally forgetting where I was, and I DID NOT spit out the piece of tomato. I mean, that would just be too embarrassing to do in front of your boyfriend and in a restaurant!!!

I did not think it extremely cute when Seth was looking at a magazine from church while I sat with him on Sunday nite. The magazing was not about this guy who's in Tanzania. Seth did not see the one page and ask what a group of guys were doing just standing there. I did not tell him they were praying together. Seth did not then say, "That guy should be the same color as the other guys." I did not tell him that it was okay because he was a missionary and God makes all people different. He did not then point to the missionary and say, "But he looks like he's from St. Thomas!" I did not think this was the funniest thing and have to make sure I didn't laugh to loud so that I didn't disturb others in church. I do not thoroughly enjoy watching my 5 yr old nephews growing up and snickering at some of the things he comes up with=0)
